"Tea with the Sugar Plum Fairy"

The Allen Civic Ballet will hold its annual “Tea with the Sugar Plum Fairy” on Saturday, December 6. The Snow Queen welcomes her guests into her Kingdom, a winter wonderland of sparkling snowflakes and ice frosted trees. Tea and lemonade are served, along with the tastiest treats from the Kingdom of the Sweets (provided by some of Allen’s finest shops), while characters from the ballet visit each table.

Mother Ginger tells the story of the “Nutcracker” with the help of the characters. Afterwards, guests may sit with the Sugar Plum Fairy on her golden, jewel encrusted throne, or sit with Clara and the Nutcracker Prince in the Snow Queen’s ice blue sleigh. Everyone is invited to take pictures with all of the characters, including the Ballerina Doll, the Arabian Queen and the Dew Drop Fairy. Guests may get autographs on anything from toe shoes to Christmas ornaments.

The Tea will be held at the Allen Conservatory of Dance at 602 E. Main Street, Suite E with seatings at 11:00am, 1:00pm and 3:00pm. The cost is $15 per person. All children must be accompanied by an adult. The Tea is a perfect mother/father and daughter date!
